As the weekend came, I had some news that was a bit upsetting. Got my head around it and decided after some conversations with my husband and son, and a friend, this is just another bump in the road that may come about. Things come and go in our lives. So do people. We need to know when to let go and let God as the saying goes.
I enjoyed my weekend, still thinking in the back of my mind about the news I had received. Saturday evening came and Jim and I went to Greensburg which is about 30 minutes from where we live. We have one newer car and a couple older F-150 pick ups that Jim loves and cares for.
While in Greensburg, the truck we were in broke down. It would not start and run for any length of time. It was not taking us home. So we called a tow truck and he picked up the truck. Jim was riding with him and I had been picked up by our son and his family earlier to preserve our perishables.
When the tow truck went to pull into our driveway, it broke down! Yes, right in the end of our driveway! This is sure funny now, but not at the time. But the more I thought about the chances that in that 60 minute round trip that tow truck made, what are the chances it would break down just as it safely pulled from the main highway into our driveway? And I knew. God was teaching me again. If he can take care of that old truck and get it safely home, why would I ever think he would not have this new situation I was so concerned about taken care of?
Lesson learned, God. At least for this time. You know me, Lord. You made me, Lord. You love me, Lord. Thank you, Lord, for loving this worry wart!
